I totally agree! They only smell good if there's only one of them, and you keep it in the attic so that you only get the slightest whiff. I once went to a January funeral and I SWEAR everyone had sent paperwhites. The whole place STUNK. Yuck!

That reminds me of the odor of boxwoods. Most people say they smell like cat urine, but I think they smell like dog poo. A group of friends recently tried to sit outside a restaurant for a chat, but the smell of the boxwoods rapidly changed our plans!
